Hesitation
I have a 250 (6) and when I leave from a stop sign there is a slight hesitation then it goes. I have replaced the plugs, fuel filter and points and had the carb rebuilt any thing else I should look at?

See if your accelerator pump in adjustable. Should be. Play with adjusting that a bit.

Also check the vacumm advance, the diaphram may be shot. Another thing to check is the play in the distributor shaft /bushings.

I had a 250 for a couple of years that had a bad stumble like yours. I tried everything I could think of to fix that problem. I finally decided to replace the distributor with a rebuilt one, and the problem went away. If I were you, I'd be tempted to replace the distributor with an HEI.

Good point pjmoreland! I ended up dropping in a used HEI from a 77 Nova from a junk yard, best thing I ever did!
